Activities
Activities of EHTEL maintain or support the multi-stakeholder networking platform e.g. in the form of conferences and information dissemination. Activities also comprise two types of working groups - the permanent stake-holder working groups (focusing on the perspective and interest of that group) and the multi-disciplinary task forces (focusing on particular eHealth themes).
Stakeholder Groups
Stakeholder working groups were defined as standing bodies of EHTEL, permanently represented within the Association. Stakeholder groups identified as standing bodies of EHTEL are: ** Ministries of Health/Healthcare Authorities, ** National Associations and Competence Centres, ** Patients / Citizens / Consumers Associations. EHTEL also welcomes the contribution of Insurers, Industry, Research & Development, Healthcare Management and Healthcare Institutions, but has so far not etablished permanent working groups for these.
Task Forces
EHTEL Task Forces are multi-stakeholder and multi-disciplicary temporary working groups focusing on particular eHealth themes.
Ambassador Events
Europe is more and more becoming a worldwide reference point for eHealth and EHTEL is now receiving regular request for lecturing overseas. This section provides the public with not only a window on this recent development but present opportunities for EHTEL members to benefit and contribute to this eHealth ambassador mission
